#ProPlantTips for Care:
Ficus Trees do prefer good air humidity, so misting your plant and increasing the relative humidity is preferable. Display in any kind of bright, indirect sunlight for the best health, but Ficus can tolerate some partial shade and office lighting too. Their main requirement is their dislike of being moved around and being placed in drafts of any kind. These plants love a nice stable environment to grow in.
To water your Kokedama, simply submerge the bottom 3/4ths of your moss ball in a dish or the sink and let soak for 5-10 minutes or so. Remove to a draining area for 20 minutes to let excess water run out of the root system. Then place it back into its display. Repeat as necessary, maintaining a moderate yet consistent moisture level.
Because of many factors, the watering frequency will vary throughout the year. Dry winters with dehumidifiers running - you may need to water a couple of times a week! If your Kokedama is as light as air or your plant is wilting, you need to check it a bit more often or soak it a bit longer each time. If the plant is heavy and it's a humid summer week, you can skip watering. Root rot is a death sentence for many plants.
Check out the full details on caring for your Kokedama Here in our Garden Blog!
- Use room temperature filtered, purified, or bottled water - even rainwater
- Bright Indirect Light - Avoid direct sunlight
- Soak for 5-10 minutes & let drain
- Don't move Ficus around - Avoid AC & heating vent drafts
- Use half-strength fertilizer in the soaking water in spring & fall
